Property Description

Nestled on the Southwest Shore of Burntside Lake, this updated ranch-style rambler offers stunning views and a peaceful retreat. The 1,344 square foot home features a paved driveway and two spacious garages: a 24 x 40 garage from 1978 with a heated work area, and a barn-style 24 x 32 garage from 2014 with a cold storage loft, heating, and electricity. Inside, the main level includes a 6 x 5 entry leading to a kitchen and dining area. A 12 x 18 media room with a stone fireplace provides a cozy escape. The primary bedroom measures 11 x 18 and has ample closet space, with a stylish full bath nearby. The inviting living area boasts a rock fireplace and western views of the lake, while an 8 x 24 covered porch offers a great outdoor space. The lower-level features heated tile flooring, a laundry room, a 6 x 8 tiled bath with a shower, and access to a cedar sauna. There's also an 11 x 13 bonus room ready for egress window installation, and a 14 x 16 bedroom with a walkout feature. With 100 feet of lakeshore and a 10 x 20 covered boat port, this property is perfect for fishing enthusiasts. Additional storage includes a log-sided structure and a 1.75-story barn-style garage built in 2024, with heating and a cold storage loft. Surrounded by trees for privacy, this home is a hidden gem on Burntside Lake.
